Agreed on the Rittenhouse - the stock comes and goes from the NC ABC stores so last time it was in I stocked up and have about 2.25 bottles left. It's my go to for Rye sipping and Rye drinks (adds a nice bit of heat to the cocktail).
Sometimes I don't know how east coast whiskey drinkers get by in states with ABC boards. Out here I've never had trouble finding Rittenhouse, Old Overholt, Michters or most of the more common ryes. The big stores in Denver/Boulder tend to have tons of that stuff in stock.
And of course in Colorado we have Stranahans.

Also, a Rittenhouse Manhattan made with Carpano Antica and a rinse of Gran Torres orange liqueur is a magical thing.
